I love BIOWARE, but sadly, i have a really bad feeling on this one.

Iselin

Is it just me or is everyone else hearing double commentary echo in that video?

Albatroes

That's right EA, distract us with Anthem so we dont notice the crap state Battlefield V released in....

Ishkal

WOW that looks boring as hell lol

Wizardry

All i see is get a quest/mission whatever you want to call it and rinse repeat over and over until what,the next expansion comes out and more missions?
Maybe i have heard wrong,i thought we were tired of questing in these games?I don't mind it once in a while but i don't want that to be the center point of the game.
I also like to see several events in these games that bring players together to perhaps save a fortress ,save a town/village whatever,players working together.

You can create these event hubs that happen maybe twice a day and for all level ranges.

Then maybe some leader of a town randomly hires people to do some mission alongside some other npc's that maybe has to infiltrate another town/village,you know something of coop and to me fun.

I on't want to run down linear paths because some mission says go kill 10 bandits,come back for reward,we give you points to spend on upgrades,i don't want any of that crap.

Our default position should now be this is another FO76/Bless/(Insert game here) until we have seen the reviews. That is the horrible climate that has been created, it may seem an overreaction but if you want to feel you have bought a duff game every other purchase than go ahead and put money in now.

I can't see myself playing this over Warframe.
Sorry, waste of time and talent from Bioware.
Focus on ME and DA instead, that's what you do best (or used to do).

What a horrible way to live your life. Default to crying, bitching and being negative.   Maybe it's time to find a new hobby.

Why play this over warframe? Or even Destiny for that matter? At least those 2 games are established and Forsaken seemed to be well received. Still very much a wait and see here as that looked ok but nothing that would draw me away from the other 2.

Destiny is alright but i prefer third person view... and Warframe? that game is so damn confusing. i have no idea what the hell is going on and what i'm supposed to do.

i'm hoping this one won't be like that and it also looks way cooler to me.

oh and as i understand it they're not going to do the whole sequel route that destiny is doing either so that's a win in my book.

Its just the voices in your head again.

DO YOU HEAR THE VOICES TOO???

In stereo where available.

Mensur

Anthem- No thanks! You can see in the video that the people participating in the video are not enjoying the game. No soap in the world will wash the taste of d*ck from their mouth once this game becomes a flop.

Did you actually read what he wrote? He's advocating being an informed consumer. Where did you get crying, bitching, and being negative?

Sure did...let's break it down since you missed it.

"Our default position should now be this is another FO76/Bless/(Insert game here) until we have seen the reviews. "

Here is is saying the DEFAULT position should be it's a bad game and to complain , bitch and be negative. 

"That is the horrible climate that has been created, it may seem an overreaction"

Here he even admits this may seem like an overreaction.

Now go back and reread the entire thing very slowly if my breakdown didnt help you.

They don't even have to provide a distraction. They're thanking the gods that Blizzard and Bethesda had even larger, more public fuckups to overshadow their own.

That is not what he said at all. He said that the default position is that it is another Fallout 76. You extrapolated the part about complaints, bitching and being negative. Where did he say that in his post ? You're trying to assign behaviour where none was indicated.

An overreaction admission is to do with the horrible climate. That's normal too. I think you're merely trying to make up things he never alluded to.

FO 76 is widely considered a bad game on the internet,  people on the internet have been none stop bitching and complaining about it.  He is advocating that be the DEFAULT position players should take for new games.  

I'm not assigning behaviors I'm stating what behaviors he wants the DEFAULT to be based on his own comment.

That's your interpretation and since he only said to wait for reviews you owe him an apology.

 If you dont agree with that interpretation that's perfectly fine. But if you think you can force me into the group think or an apology you are sadly mistaken.

To provide the most reasonable response I can, I'll say this. Perhaps the time has come that we should be skeptical of new releases, even in the IPs we love. 

The following IPs have had disastrous releases this year alone: Fallout, Metal Gear, Battlefield.

The following IPs have had disastrous releases last year: Star Wars Battlefront, Mass Effect, Marvel vs Capcom

The following IPs have died in the last few years alone: Mass Effect, Metal Gear, Dead Space, Hitman, Deus Ex, Silent Hills.

And these are just the ones I know of. Consumer confidence in the IPs that form the foundation of our medium is being rapidly shaken by bad games and entirely canceled IPs. Perhaps we should be more skeptical of games, even in IPs we love, and avoid giving games our money until they have been reviewed as quality entries, until such a time as the industry decides to start treating its established IPs with the respect that they deserve.

I bet Vaseline gives you a great discount.

You are mistaken bud it's you guys who need that for each other.

Hmm... there seems to be pattern with you attacking posters on this forum. You insult them (saw that on another thread) and assign and insist on an interpretation that the poster did not allude to here. Seems very confrontational and totally unnecessary for civil discussion here.

Why must you take these positions? Does not advance any discussion but does provide you ample opportunity to fight with posters. I'm afraid if this is your agenda you will find yourself very quickly ignored by many posters. I suggest you take a deep breath and think about how you should contribute to the topic.

Are you referring to the posters who stated I needed vaseline or the one who called me an asshole or the one who demanded I apologize cause he didnt agree with my comment?  Yeah i agree the super users here are not a very friendly or inviting group.

He's advocating a wait and see approach to games via assuming all games, no matter how awesome the IP or hyped by the marketing teams, are not going to be as good as everyone wants to believe before they get their hands on it.

That's prudent advice.  One that should be taken, especially in today's industry where bait and seitches are common and it's never been clearer producers want only your money for as little effort as possible.
